Chapter 689 The Queen's Road (26)
"Report, General, those people have moved and are rushing in a certain direction at an extremely fast speed. Our people are also following behind, and they have not been noticed by them."

"Okay!" General Huang picked up the thing and held it in his hand, "Pass down my military order to gather all the troops and march tonight. I want to appear in front of the enemy before dawn without anyone noticing."

"Yes, General."

Leader Bai and the others returned to the valley cautiously, and went to see the patriarch with an ugly expression, the man who regarded himself as the emperor in this valley, and endured the reprimand from the "emperor" and the ridicule of the clansmen, but none of this could match their standing. I was shocked to see the black army gathering outside the valley on the front fire platform.

"Listen, all the remnants of the previous dynasty. My emperor is merciful. If you take off your armor and surrender, you can give yourself a way to survive. If you resist, then our army will enter the valley..." The loud voice echoed in the valley. It made the people of the former royal family who were used to living a comfortable life so scared that they would howl like ghosts.

Master Bai's face was slapped severely by his father, "Useless things, these enemies were brought in by you..."

The stormy Lingnan area is about to usher in a battle in early summer, and in the Yanyun area on the Huahu border, Xun Ying's army crossed the Hu border.

"General, the battle situation is just right now. It would be even better if we can attack King Hu's court in one fell swoop." Tie Shixi laughed.

Tie Yi immediately tapped him on the top of his head, "Did you just fight against the barbarian today? You have fought with the old general all your life, don't you understand that once you go deep into the grassland, the battle will become unpredictable?" His eyes looked aside and pondered Xun Ying of the topographical map, although the generals of the Xun family's generation are young, even an old man has to obey his prudent marching attitude.

"Tie Yi is right. Now is not the time to be greedy for meritorious deeds." Xun Ying said, "The barbarians still send troops to attack in this season when the water and grass are abundant. We can't underestimate the enemy. We will send orders to the soldiers to rest for a while."

The wind blows across the prairie, a man with brown hair and blue eyes stretched out his arms to catch a goshawk falling from the sky, took down a small wooden tube, let the goshawk fly, opened it, and then frowned, "Mohan'er was caught Killed?"

Nose snorted softly, looked at the Yanyun area filled with gunpowder smoke, his face darkened and he turned around and said, "Call the fifth princess to the royal court for me."

Song Zhi'er was sitting in front of the window embroidering, gorgeous pomegranate flowers were forming under her needles, Xiang'er came in to add fragrance to her, and she stepped on her foot while sitting by the side and said: "Miss, Mrs. Chen is here to propose again. "

Song Zhi'er frowned, no matter how hard he chased this person away, he couldn't drive him away? "What did father and mother say?"

"I heard that Mrs. Madam is going to respond." Xiang'er said.

Song Zhier was taken aback, and suddenly felt slight numbness on her finger, she saw that it was already bleeding, she quickly sucked her finger, and said with a serious expression: "Xiang'er, didn't you lie to me?"

"Miss, the slaves can't talk nonsense to deceive the lady. Master Chen is a good-looking talent. He has come to propose marriage several times. Now even the wife is full of praise. Miss, why don't you nod?" Xiang'er was puzzled, "Mrs. The lover can't be found even with a lantern."

Song Zhi'er stood up, "This man is slippery, and he will deceive people. Who knows if he has deceived a large group of ladies? I'll go and see."

When Xiang'er heard that the lady was going to the front hall, she hurried forward to serve the lady.

Song Zhi'er hid behind the screen, looked through the small hole, and happened to see Chen Lin saying: "I am sincerely proposing marriage to Miss Your Mansion. Last time Madam asked my parents what their opinions are on this marriage? This is my mother's since According to the letter from Jiangnan, she is very supportive of this marriage."

He stepped forward and respectfully handed a letter to his mother.

Mother opened it to look, and after a while, she frowned and said: "I'm also worried that Zhi'er had a marriage contract with your cousin, and it's not good to hear such rumors. Marriage is not a matter of two people, but a matter of two families. Ling Tang If you don't accept this marriage, even if my son is forced to marry you, it will be very difficult for me to be a human being."

"Your Majesty also knows, but madam should know that I will be released as an official in May. If I get married before then, I plan to take my family with me." Chen Lin said.

Father stroked his beard in great relief, "This is very good."

She was busy with Xiang'er sending a message to her mother, but her mother bowed knowingly and said: "My lord, wait a moment."

Chen Lin looked at the screen where she was sitting, "Wait a minute, ma'am, can I speak to Ling Qianjin?"

"This..." Mother hesitated, then ignored the hand she waved to her behind the screen, and said with a smile: "That's fine."

She stroked her forehead, facing this incoherent person, it was really hard to imagine that this person is actually the number one scholar, it seems that her mother is very fond of him.

Her mother pulled her father away, and then she came out from behind the screen and bowed, "Master Chen, it's time to stop the courtship trick."

"Why did Miss say that this is a trick? I am absolutely sincere when I come here to ask for marriage." Chen Lin said seriously, "No one in the world will play with marriage."

"My fair lady, a gentleman is so sweet, what is that if it's not playing?" Song Zhi'er was startled for a while, and then said displeasedly, how can anyone say this as soon as they meet.

Only now did Chen Lin realize that he was in a cocoon, and smiled wryly, "Zhi'er, can I call you like this? I have come here to propose marriage several times, isn't it just to show my heart? The matter between you and your cousin is over, let's talk about people. It’s about looking forward, and you shouldn’t dwell on the past anymore, and this is not the kind of girl I think you will be, if you are, then it’s not worth my coming to propose.”

Song Zhier looked at him seriously this time, his handsome face was full of confidence, his words moved her, just like what she said before, what she wants is a man who can understand her, does this man in front of her really understand her? ?
This time she put away the trace of prejudice, "Master Chen, if you really want to marry Zhi'er, can you let us talk a few more times in private, Zhi'er's marriage is not going well, and I don't want to entrust someone who is wrong with you." , what does Master Chen think?"

Would she try to accept him?
Chen Lin grinned brilliantly. It was a bold request and move, but it suited his taste. "Then excuse me."

In May, the heat of summer began to sweep across the imperial capital. Xun Zhen asked someone to hang up bamboo curtains in the Hualong Palace, which would make it much more refreshing, but Yan Yu who was on the side read a list to her, "A set of rich and precious jewelry with blooming flowers, red pomegranate A set of jade head noodles...fifty bolts of silk and satin in various colors..."
